About me
Hi, I’m Mollie, a relational integrative counsellor offering a calm, supportive, and confidential space where you can gently explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences.
You may be feeling anxious, low, overwhelmed, angry, carrying the weight of grief or past experiences, or struggling with the impact of neurodiversity such as ADHD, autism, or a learning difficulty. Whatever has brought you here, you don’t have to face it alone. You are very welcome to get in touch so we can explore whether working together feels right for you.
Perhaps you often feel unheard, misunderstood, or as though you have to cope on your own. You might have tried to open up to people around you, only to feel met with advice, judgement, or the sense that your feelings were brushed aside. It can be deeply lonely when you just need someone to truly listen.
In our sessions, you will be offered time, space, and undivided attention - a place where you can speak freely, at your own pace, without the fear of being judged or misunderstood. My aim is to help you feel safe, accepted, and supported, so you can begin to explore what you need in a way that feels right for you.
I believe each person is unique, and I tailor my approach to reflect this. Together, we will find a way of working that feels supportive, respectful, and right for you.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP) and hold an Integrated Master of Science in Psychology and Counselling from Birmingham City University.
I work from a relational integrative approach, this means I believe the therapeutic relationship is at the heart of effective therapy and that, when the right conditions and a safe, supportive environment are in place, everyone has the capacity to grow and reach their full potential. My priority is to help you feel safe, understood, and accepted, so that you can work at your own pace and in a way that feels right for you. It also means that I tailor my approach to fit your individual needs, as not just one approach suits everyone.
My work is grounded in the person-centred approach, focusing on building a safe, supportive, and trusting therapeutic relationship. I also draw upon psychological interventions from other approaches, including attachment theory, interpersonal neurobiology, compassion-focused therapy, interpersonal family systems (IFS) and cognitive and behavioural therapies, to support your emotional wellbeing and meet your needs further.
I have experience working with a wide range of difficulties, including anxiety, depression, low mood, grief and bereavement, relational difficulties, trauma, Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), emotional dysregulation, and issues related to neurodiversity, such as ADHD, autism, and learning differences.
I also specialise in working with neurodiverse clients, including individuals who have autism, ADHD, dyslexia, learning differences, or who experience the world in ways that differ from what is often considered as ‘neurotypical’. I recognise that many neurodivergent people have experienced years of misunderstanding, masking, questioning themselves and trying to fit in.
So with this in mind, I offer a welcoming, accepting space where you can be yourself without fear of judgement or the need to mask who you are. Together, we can explore the challenges you may be facing, as well as recognising and building on your strengths, developing more self-understanding, and feeling more accepted for who are. Whether you’re seeking support with anxiety, overwhelm, burnout, relationships, emotional regulation, self-understanding, or simply wanting a space where you feel truly heard, I will work alongside you at your pace and in a way that feels right for you.
Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
